Grandma Polly loves coffee. She goes to the coffee shop everyday, sometimes she even goes to Starbucks to buy her favorite espresso. Grandma cannot go through the day without drinking coffee. She is a coffee addict because she drinks almost ten mugs of coffee a day. Her doctor asked her to lessen her coffee intake but she never followed the doctor’s advice. A month later, grandma had a heart attack because of too much caffeine in her blood. The doctor advised her to drink Uji Matcha. This time she followed the doctor’s suggestion.
At first she does not want the taste of green tea. She said that it does not taste good. So my mother asked our neighbor who is a Japanese to prepare the tea for us. Lee our neighbor has added milk and sugar to Grandma’s tea. It gave an aromatic essence and it looked really delicious. At first she was very hesitant to drink it. After a few minutes of convincing her to sip some of it, she finally had drunk the whole cup of tea. Grandma told us that it tasted really good. Now she is used to drinking tea. She even asked Lee to teach him how to prepare her own drink.
